Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008065611A2] A system (500) for visualizing a vascular structure represented by a three- dimensional angiography dataset is disclosed. Respective voxel values are associated with respective voxels. The dataset represents a vascular structure. The system comprises means (502) for establishing respective filling values; means (504) for identifying respective minimum filling values; means (506) for computing respective deficiency values; and an output (514) for providing a visualization in dependence on the deficiency values. A respective filling value is indicative of an amount of blood flow at the respective position in the vascular structure. A respective minimum filling value is a minimum of the filling values associated with the positions upstream of the respective position. A respective deficiency value is indicative of a difference between the filling value associated with the respective position and the minimum filling value associated with the respective position.
